Starting Your Home Search

1)  Determine your price range - 3 to 4 times your annual income plus your downpayment, is a good guideline if you don't want to talk with a lender yet.  Stick closer to 3 times.

2)  Go to my site or any Broker's Website with a property search function

3)  Put in all of the cities you might like to live in

4)  Put in your price range

5)  If you are using my site, you will see two types of property.  Active and Offer STI.  The Offer STI properties are "SOLD Subject to Inspection", but will most often better represent what your dollars will buy in a given area.

6)  Narrow down the places where you would like to live and can afford, using this method

It's a start.
